Crestron Home control of Yamaha Receivers via IP

 

I am installing a CH system in an existing residence.? It has two Yamaha Receivers (RX-V671 and RX-A1010).?

For the RX-A1010, I tried the RX-A1070 MultiZone and, although it shows connected, I have no control of the unit.
For the RX-V671, I tried the RX-V685 and, although it shows connected, I have no control of the unit.

Can someone give me a little guidance on what I am doing wrong.? Are there settings inside of the unit that I need to make to get it to talk or is there a different driver that I should use?? Please help.

Thank you so much in advance.


Re: jbasen: Shelly temp/humidity sensors

Hi Antonio,

Sorry for the slow reply.

First, I posted all the source code for the Shelly modules, including the S# code, on my GitHub for exactly this reason.? There is nothing stopping anyone from tweaking these modules to, for example, parse the temperature and humidity values in a different way to obtain the full value instead of just the whole number value of the readings.? I'd have to setup a H&T sensor to test with this to be 100% sure but looking at the code it appears that I'm sending back the full value from the S# code to the S+ code and then just do an atoi for parsing.? I think you could just replace the atoi call with some more sophisticated parsing in S+ to accomplish what you want.? The other alternative would be to parse the values in S#, multiply the result by 10, and pass them back as shorts instead of strings to s+.? This is essentially how Crestron thermostats report values in 10ths of degrees.

I have to make some updates to the Shelly modules for some new hardware that Shelly is releasing so I may be able to do something in the next couple of weeks.

Your question about polling the H&T sensor is one you would have to ask Shelly.? I expect they are trying to maximize the battery life of the sensor so that is probably why it doesn't give temperature updates as often as you would like.? I'm not aware of how you could force an update but Shelly tech support may be able to help you out with that question.

Thanks

Jay

Hi Jay,
im using H&T sensor only as a temp probe but i have 2 questions:
1 - i see on console temp have one decimal, it is possible to have out module also?
2 - maybe my mistake somewhere, H&T push me info but i would have expected every celsius degree change but is not so. Now a'm thinking powering H&T every time i need temp feedback using power like polling, any advise?

Samsung Universal Module

 

For years I have used the Samsung Universal TV Module to control on and off, and volume up and down. This was used on my 48 inch Samsung and had no issues. I just replaced the display with a 60¡± Samsung SmartTV. On and off work great. Volume is causing some issues. If I hit up or down it jumps levels. IE If it is on 11 and I hit up it will jump to level 16.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? SHould I just run the IR learner on the new remote and see if that helps?

Are you using SIMPL?

probably is easier ir you make a second program exclusive for lighting with d3 pro , and make an Intersystem connection to share the keypads.?

Re: CH5 - Zero to button

 
Edited

I got this problem before. Make sure to set the background white color. It is because the default background for the computer web browser is white but the background of the TSW-1060 browser is black.


Re: Server for testing

 

You don't need to add /html. That is the root folder for the webserver.


If you put a subfolder in the html folder and then put the file there, you would need to include that subfolder.


Re: CH5 - Zero to button

 

Got it to work on my computer browser, but when I get black screen on my TSW1060.
Any ideas?


Re: Server for testing

 

Using a processor would seem to be the easiest

I placed my xml file in the HTML directory but doesn't display contents using a browser.

processor_IP/html/somefile.xml

Neither of these methods worked. What am I missing?


Re: Crestron Home with Unifi Cameras

 

Try adding this to the end of your serial string:?

.....................?rtsp_tcp=no
So my original link supplied from the Unifi's Protect was:
Original:??
rtsps://192.168.x.xxx:7441/UvyHyFrPHqzN?enableSrtp
Modified:?
rtsp://192.168.x.xxx:7447/UvyHyFrPHqzN?rtsp_tcp=no

Here are some notes I have saved in OneNote. Might be helpful.?

Camera Stream Integration?

Camera Configuration?

To configure the camera, refer to the information below.?

Configure either the H.264 or the MJPEG video stream according to the recommended?

maximum resolution in the Video Streaming with Crestron Touch Screens online help article OLH 5195.??

?

Generic streaming information:?

? Configure the camera JPEG snapshots so that they do not exceed the maximum

resolution as follows: List View: 1920 X 1080 16:9, Grid View: 640 X 360 16:9, and Hi-Res Grid View: 1920 X 1080 16:9

? Make note of the correct URL for the camera, as this URL will be used in the program.

?

H.264 information:

? Set the I-Frame rate of the camera as low as possible.

? Set the Frame per Second (FPS) rate as high as possible to improve the connection

time from Crestron platforms.

?

UDP versus TCP for H.264 streams?

? To reduce latency when connecting and streaming from an H.264 stream, the preferred connection method is UDP.?

? The best way to make sure the touch panel is using UDP is to add ¡°?rtsp_tcp=no¡± at the end of the rtps:// URL, for example:?

¡ð rtsp://user:pass@IPADRESS:PORT/live.sdp?rtsp_tcp=no.??

? However, if the network is configured in a way where UDP is not supported when the camera is on a different subnet than the touch screen, the TCP method must be used, for example:?

¡ð rtsp://user:pass@IPADRESS:PORT/live.sdp?rtsp_tcp=yes.?

?

Streaming Buffer Size

? When viewing IP videos, a buffer is needed for the incoming video. If the buffer length is reduced, the switching time is improved.??

? If there are any network limitations, video distortion may occur. Test and then use the lowest possible buffer setting that will work in the network environment. If video distortion occurs or if the stream appears choppy, then raise the value until the problem is alleviated.??

? The default buffer length for touch screens supporting the EEV object is 1,000 milliseconds (ms). Valid values are from 25 ms to 2,000 ms. The buffer length can be adjusted by using the following console command to set the length in milliseconds:

¡ð? MEDIABUFFERLEN.?

Re: How's it Working Series: SRL

 

I use them all the time.? Very helpful for keeping a basic design that just needs minor tweaking depending on the project (visibility joins on sources for instance).
According to Crestron, visibility joins are faster than using the analog join for number of items.? It also allows you to hide items in the middle of the list.? Also, according to Crestron, the list will draw faster if the "enable background" is checked.? I never enable it though but according to their tests, it draws faster.? "according to Crestron" are statements made at masters years ago when SRL first came out so maybe that's changed but I doubt it.

A big gotcha that I don't think ever was fixed, even though it was discussed numerous times with them, is the problem where if you have a SRL, say a menu, and you press an item on the menu, if you switch to a new subpage while the press join is still high, the touchpanel will continue to keep that signal high.? As an example, you have a SRL menu for presentation, audio conference, video conference, and settings.? The user presses the button for settings.? While pressing it, the touchscreen changes to the settings page and then the user releases his finger.? In debugger the settings join will be high.? So when they press the menu button again, it appears nothing happens.? In reality, the menu subpage opened, the join for settings was high, so the menu closed and the settings page opened.? The band aid fix courtesy of TB Canada is to do a lwp and trigger the page changes on the release.? So you would put the press on the [trig*], put a 0 on the trig, and the on the out, it would trigger your page change.? I've done that for years and haven't had any issues with SRL latching high phantom presses.? Pretty much if the press results in a page/subpage change, I just trigger it based off the release just to be safe.


Re: How's it Working Series: SRL

 

Theres an analog input Scroll_To_Item on the SRL in Simpl, but I dont know how that would help to speed it up

Re: Crestron Home with Unifi Cameras

 

What you are doing should work. I checked the unifi cameras.? ?I do have the snapshots turned on (you can access it at the camera ip address as )

My guess is you have accidentally removed too much from the stream URL.

Can you grab mpv or some other player, and try the actual stream URL you have entered into crestron?


Otherwise, check the crestron logs and see what they say.


Does Crestron sell blank adapter inserts for their different colored decora faceplates?

 

Title says it all.

Thanks.


Re: How's it Working Series: SRL

 

Daniel,
Is that a console command, or were you just clarifying your previous post?

Re: How's it Working Series: SRL

 

I wonder if there's a way after an update to force a load so that it would perform better on the initial use...


Re: How's it Working Series: TV Presets v2

 

Interesting! So this module requires communications to a service, even after initial setup?? I get that there are updates to be had over time, but if the service is off-line do the existing presets stop working? even with the old list?

If so, that gives me the creeps, as I'll never recoup losses from Weather App issues over the last year!!...:)
I should change my business model to a Loss-based format! HaHa!!


Re: Android Tablet - unable to view H.264/MJPEG Stream #android #crestronapp

 

Have you made sure you're at or under the android app maximum resolution and frame rate?? It looks like the app is significantly lower for h.264 and MJPEG (1280x720@15fps) than the 60 series (1920x1080@30fp).? I've had problems in the past with resolution & fps mis-matches across interfaces.


Re: Android Tablet - unable to view H.264/MJPEG Stream #android #crestronapp

 

Try this - while you streaming object if active on the page subpage, press the tablets power button to turn off screen then wake it up. This has worked for me in the past - it was required often to get it going.?
